Evaluation of Swedish Research Cooperation with Tanzania, 2007-2013

The overall objective of the research programme was to strengthen the national research capacity and improve the quality of research conducted in Tanzania in areas of national relevance to contribute to poverty reduction and the country’s sustainable development.
